Where to Find Beer: Bottles, Millwood, WA

Travel north of I-90 for a mile on Argonne Road into Millwood, WA, a small town sandwiched between Spokane and the City of Spokane Valley, and you’ll come across a wine and beer shop that, frankly, isn’t much to look at from the outside. But what they haven’t spent on sprucing up the exterior, they’ve put in to a rather fine inventory. As usual, I didn’t spend much time perusing the wine, but I did fill up an empty wine box with a nice selection of 22oz bombers.

I stopped at Bottles on my way in to Spokane for a weekend trip recently after finding it in a google search for a new place to seek out. On my last trip back in June, I scoped out Enoteca in Post Falls, ID. Where Enoteca focused largely on 22oz bombers, Bottles has a nice mix of both 22oz bombers and 12oz singles ready for mixing and matching. I’m always seeking new-to-me places like Bottles on my trips out of state because they’ve always got things I can’t get in Montana. And Bottles did not disappoint. Sure, there’s quite a few I’ve had before and can get in Missoula, but there were more than enough new ones to make me smile.
